Homophobia is very bad in the Ukraine according to this Guardian article by Elton John. He wrote this today, and stated that some people may not have wanted him there performing last night.
This is probably why they were making fun of Adam if it should be true. :(
We think homophobia is bad here, but over there it's really really bad!

SophiaStrange I am sure that if Freddie Mercury was alive, he would be honoured to have Adam Lambert sing his songs.

There are 22 parts in total. I have downloaded to as many different sites as I could find because:
1) My net speed has slowed down (which always happens only when I need it most) :argh:
2) Most sharing sites have a daily download limit for free users so I don't want people to get stuck not being able to download.
I will download everything to Mediafire after I finish with all the parts. Keep following this post because I'll keep adding files as they are completed. :thumbs:

Adam Lambert Is Queen For A Day In Kiev
July 1st, 2012 He Did, He Did Rock Them
No,that’s not a Freddie Mercury hologram performing with Queen — it’s Adam Lambert! The superstar trespassed all the way to Kiev, Ukraine last night to be Queen for a day, serving as frontman for the legendary “Bohemian Rhapsody” band. Not only was it an epic meeting of like-minded talents in its own right, but it also benefits a good cause — the Elton John AIDS foundation. (Sir “Crocodile Rock” also performed.) “What an amaaaazing evening! I’m humbled and honored. The energy in the crowd was beyond! Thank you Kiev!” Adam tweeted following the show. In other words — he did, he did rock them. Watch the full show above
So many great comments...
"HEP.
Adam Lambert finally found a stage and a moment worthy of his talent,if there is such a thing as Freddie Mercury having a heir,it would be him….the whole concert was amazing because they manage to update the songs and the stage presence while at the same time not losing site of the original magic…the right balance was found,what a great night for Adam Lambert,Queen, and for the memory of Freddie but also what a great night for music,reminded us what is missing mostly these days…real talent who can actually sing live!" http://idolator.com/6678762/adam-lambert-queen-kiev

When it comes to Adam Lambert's multitude of diehard fans, sharing is caring, which is reason enough for one such Glambert to upload to YouTube all two hours of Queen's Ukraine show on June 30, featuring the American Idol season 8 runner-up as frontman.
No stranger to the music of Queen, having sung a medley of the iconic band's hits with guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor at the MTV Europe Awards in 2011, on this stage, Lambert truly shined -- much like the late Freddie Mercury did with rousing performances of his short but prolific career.
Clad in a spiked black leather jacket and exploding with the spirit of arena rock, Lambert kicked off a triumphant evening (the show was part of a joint concert with Elton John to benefit the Elena Pinchuk ANTIAIDS Foundation) with a command: “This is rock and roll, I want to see some ass!”
Confident and assuredly in control, Lambert led the crowd through an exhilarating version of the group’s “Fat Bottomed Girls," sharing an undeniable chemistry with May and leading the raucous Kiev crowd through a majestic two-hour extravaganza that included an action packed set list of Queen hits and deep cuts.
Lambert hit his stride early in the show, trading vocals with Taylor on “Under Pressure.” He then effortlessly segued from big rock anthems such as “I Want It All” to poignant renderings of introspectively aching pieces, such as his soaring interpretation of “Who Wants to Live Forever?” Lambert’s voice and impassioned delivery brought just the right tone of longing and introspection to the lyrics, and his connection to the song and his audience grew even stronger with each verse.
To his credit, Lambert chose not to recreate or even mimic Mercury. His performance was purely his own, with a reverent nod to the man that created such timeless tunes. Even better, Lambert hit all the Mercury glory notes -- “Somebody To Love,” in particular, sounded sublime -- while retaining the necessary showmanship needed to properly perform what can easily be classified as a night-at-the-rock opera. His “Bohemian Rhapsody” was a stunning display of just what a musical theatre background can do when given the opportunity to interpret a song fully. Leaning on his Wicked days and even channelling Elvis Presley with the requisite sneers on "Crazy Little Thing Called Love," by the time the band wrapped with “We Will Rock You/We Are The Champions,” the crowd was brandishing their glow sticks in unity and solidarity.
